ci(deploy): revert to rsync via SSH port 222 (Hetzner shell port)
All checks were successful
ci / build-test (push) Successful in 3m57s

Hetzner Webhosting exposes SSH on TWO ports:
  port 22  — SFTP only, refuses remote command exec
  port 222 — full SSH with shell, supports rsync

Previous deploys hit "exec request failed on channel 0" because we
were using port 22. Switch back from lftp to plain rsync, but route
it through port 222 with --rsync-path=/usr/bin/rsync (Hetzner's
locked-down PATH doesn't include rsync by default) and BatchMode=yes
to disable interactive prompts.

Mirrors the working local command:
  rsync -avz --rsync-path=/usr/bin/rsync \
    -e "ssh -p 222 -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_gitea -o BatchMode=yes" \
    ./ apibny@www691.your-server.de:/usr/www/users/apibny/www.cameleer.io

Keeps host-key pinning (StrictHostKeyChecking + UserKnownHostsFile)
which the local command omits because the user's personal known_hosts
already trusts the host.
